Bincoo GYKF0540 100ML Stovetop Espresso Maker Double Valve Espresso Coffee Pot Constant Temperature Moka Pot Coffee Accessories Italian Coffee Macine for Home (Silver)

I bought this as part of a series of experiments to optimise my morning moka espresso. The pot is high quality, an attractive colour and the centre section does move the taste of the coffee in a good direction. The centre section is also optional. You can remove it and treat it like a normal Moka pot if you wish. In my set up I struggled a little to stop it boiling over even if left on the hob just a few seconds too long. The coffee taste is definitely better than many of my other experiments however. However, not as good as real espresso extracted at high pressure.

Great little moka pot with tons of extras. I have a few Bialettis and was looking for something different while not breaking the bank. Fill up to the 120ml line (not up to the valve as you usually would). Leave it on low/medium heat. Doing that mine hasn't spilled, sprayed or otherwise malfunctioned yet. Perfect coffee everytime.

Used product for a two weeks. Happy with the coffee it makes. The only thing would like to point, the handle came out after one week of use. Can still use the product, so only 4 stars.

When I opened the box I was thrilled, then dismayed. The only instructions were a small pamphlet written entirely in Chinese. I do not read Chinese. After a quick search on the manufacturer's website I knew enough to give it a try. In addition, I used advice from a review here. Did not fill above the little line inside the base pot. Made sure all the parts were secured firmly. It was so fast, maybe 2 minutes max, and the bottom was empty while the top pot was full. I took it off the heat once the coffee was made as the bottom piece then no longer had any water in it. The espresso was delicious. Just enough for 2 tiny cups. Made a second pot without any issues. I loved the temperature management as I could drink it right away. It seems sturdy as well, so I will keep using it for what I hope is a long time.

I purchased this product several months ago for my father for his birthday. He has used it scarcely because of a difficulty in preventing the contraption from splashing vigorously and causing a big mess. The product only occasionally does not sputter, when using the thermometer-middle piece, but it almost always splashes vigorously when changing the pieces to use just the smaller, simplified moka pot. I have tried it myself, and cannot come up with any solution to avoid this mess. I have tried tightening the pot more, reducing the water level far below the line, reducing the coffee amount, using coarser grain, finer, etc. It is our suspicion that the product is faulty altogether and we are firm in our belief that a product of this kind should not be anywhere near this difficult to use. I have a mokapot myself, from a different brand and have not had problems with splashing a single time! I really admire the Bincoo brand, and wanted to spend a little bit more money for a nicer moka pot for my father, but I am having a hard time justifying returning to this company in the future. Unfortunately, I am already past the 30-day return period because my father is old and does not know how to return the product, despite our scarcely using the product.
